Morgan Schneiderlin’s girlfriend reacts after Manchester United beat Manchester City

We can’t be certain that Morgan Schneiderlin’s girlfriend was in the crowd at the Etihad Stadium to watch Manchester United beat Manchester City because her partner got her a free ticket.

For all we know, she might have been one of the fortunate season-ticket holders who got lucky in the ballot. What do you mean that's rubbish?

Either way, Camille Sold was there at the Etihad cheering on her boyfriend and his Manchester United teammates. She wasn’t disappointed after making the short journey to Eastlands, either, judging by the short video she posted during the match. (Scroll down this page to watch the video).

Camille filmed herself and her fellow Manchester United fans celebrating after Marcus Rashford put the visitors 1-0 up in the 16th minute.

No further goals were scored during the 90 minutes and United subsequently held on for three precious points.

After the match, Camille also posted a photo on Instagram of herself holding a Schneiderlin scarf, alongside the cheeky caption: “Always support my babe even if he has big ears on this scarf 😂👂🏼”.

Schneiderlin becoming a key player for United

Of all Manchester United’s summer signings, Schneiderlin has been one of the most successful.

The France international, who completed a £25 million move from Southampton last summer, is becoming increasingly influential for the Red Devils and earned praise from Louis van Gaal after Sunday’s win at the Etihad.

"I don’t have to say that too loud because the last time I said I am very happy for Morgan Schneiderlin, after that he played not so well,” Van Gaal was quoted as saying by the Mirror.

"But today he played a very good match. He was a lot of times available to receive the pass but also defensively was very firm and strict and he played also a very important position in midfield.”

Schneiderlin not interested in personal praise

However, it’s fair to assume the praise won’t go to Schneiderlin’s head.

Back in November - in an interview with United’s official website, per the Daily Mail - the 26-year-old said his only interest is to work hard for the team.

“I’m a team player. I don't play to chase praise from anyone,” he commented. “Of course, you have to play as well as you can but I don't play to have good ratings in the paper or anything like that.

“I just play to win games and give my team the best possibilities.

“I think a lot of players are working very, very hard and a lot of players are getting praise around us because they score or they give assists in their position.

“But a lot of players are working hard, making some crucial challenges and doing some good things.

“Yet sometimes, of course, we are bit out of the spotlight, if I can say that. But for me, I don't care about being in the spotlight.”
